Employer: # 1 High Frequency Trading Shop in the U.S.
Recruiter: Alpha Recruiting
Location: New York, NY, United States
Posted: November 17, 2008 Expires: February 11, 2009
Job Title: High Frequency Quantitative Trading
Description:

  The company we are representing has been around for over a decade and is one of the only companies who are willing to guarantee bonus' for this year as well as give 15% + of PnL(depending on Sharpe, Roc, Etc..)

They have done VERY well this year(not had a down month) and have been aggressively pursing the best talent in the market.

They are fully co-located and have the lowest latency of any firm out there.

 They are looking to hire successful High Freq Stat Arb traders and quants, from both hedge funds and I-banks to join their already strong platform.

All asset classes can be supported, but the main desk is equity aligned.

 Ph.D's are preferred, but not necessary. There are plenty of very successful traders out there without Ph.d's and they hire based on future potential just as much as past accomplishments.

The interview process can be expedited for people who are looking to leave ASAP and they can pull the trigger right away.

 Please send resume for consideration, all resumes will be kept confidential.

To apply:

Send resume to Lance.Orbe@gmail.com

If you can put overall sharpe ratio, that would be helpfull.

When you apply, please mention that you saw this job on jobs.phds.org

Two our of head-hunters are former Stat Arb traders, both have Ph.D's, one from MIT the other from Caltech. If you have a Ph.D, you will most likely be speaking with one of them.

We keep all information, including our name, confidential to the general public as this is a very incestuous market and privacy is the most important thing right now.
